A recent backstage interaction between Lizzo and Chris Brown at the The Millennium Tour has social media in a frenzy.
A circulating video of the Cuz I Love You crooner with the notoriously problematic performer is raising eyebrows, after she's heard calling him 'my favorite person in the whole f***ing world.'
The interaction caused Twitter to erupt given his sordid past which includes numerous assault allegations, a felony charge for domestic violence against Rihanna, and most recently a rape accusation in 2019.
'Lizzo no baby': The 33-year-old Cuz I Love You singer dubbed Chris Brown 'my favorite person in the f***ing world' in a circulating video which caused Twitter to erupt given his history of domestic violence
The interaction went down backstage at The Millennium Tour's Los Angeles leg, which included performances from Bow Wow, Omarion and Soulja Boy with surprise appearances from Snoop Dogg, Jermaine DuPri and Chris Brown.
Lizzo was in attendance with friends to watch some of her favorites tear up the stage at The Forum, before she fangirled over Brown during a backstage meet and greet.
A fan caught a video of her going up to the Wall to Wall singer and saying: 'Can I get a picture with you cuz you my favorite person in the whole f***ing world.'
Brown obliged and the pair were seen posing for a snap before her friends joined in for another photo, but after the video began to make its rounds online many social media users were not happy.
Split down the middle: While many angry social media users condemned the interaction others had her back and said that backlash over one photo made 'zero sense'
'Yikes': 'LIZZO NO BABY,' wrote one user who was left disappointed by the interaction while another wrote 'Not Lizzo asking this man for a picture. Yikes'
'LIZZO NO BABY,' wrote one user who was left disappointed by the interaction while another wrote 'Not Lizzo asking this man for a picture. Yikes.'
Another tried to hammer in that the whole thing wasn't a good look. 'Lizzo look at me, LIZZO LOOK AT ME, you're better than this, please this isn't like you lizzo.'
One person called the interaction 'embarrassing' and let out an 'Ew,' while other fans fired off personal attacks at Lizzo as one brandished her song Rumors 'trash'.
Disappointed: Many of the comments expressed disappointment and fury over her dubbing the problematic singer her 'favorite'
And another wrote in poor taste that she wouldn't have ever been let into his 'section' if she wasn't famous, because she 'doesn't meet the domestic abuser's criteria.'
Many fans had her back as one said the 'backlash' made 'zero sense' and chalked it up to it her being a fan of his since childhood.
'Lizzo can like whoever tf she wanna like...Majority of y'all would still f**k CB in a heartbeat' wrote another, while someone said in her defense: 'Lizzo was drunk!! I was there.'
Other commenters were quick to point out the fact that Rihanna had released
